As the tallest PBSA tower globally, the scale and complexity of the project demanded a riser solution that could deliver unmatched safety, durability, and efficiency. The client also wanted to work with a company who understood the need for regular on-site support and the importance of on-time deliveries.
 
Due to the diverse riser sizes and configurations needed across 44 storeys, GridGuard was the clear choice, offering the flexibility and innovation required for a project of this magnitude. Our team worked closely with the on-site team to ensure every riser was designed precisely to the building’s specifications. We also implemented a Just-in-Time (JIT) delivery approach, coordinating with the on-site team to ensure materials only arrived when needed. This approach not only helped in managing storage challenges but also significantly contributed to reducing waste and enhancing project efficiency.

 
GridGuard’s lightweight design simplified handling and transport, enabling efficient installation even in a high-rise environment where access is often restricted. Its anti-slip properties and corrosion-resistant materials further enhanced safety on-site, meeting the rigorous standards required for a building of this scale and prominence. By providing a tailored and efficient solution, GridGuard not only met but exceeded the demands of this landmark project, contributing to the successful delivery of a structure set to redefine student living in Leeds.
